@@pancakespets pancake I want to thank u you help so much with my hamster journey a lot I have had five who all lived 2-3 years and were very happy not only that but very good lives to!
Used to own hamsters. The very first one I had ended up passing away behind my toybox when I was younger. Broke my heart because I think he was looking for me.
These are actually very helpful tips. I can't extend this enough to people, just because they are small, does not mean they can live in a small space. But so many people live in denial regarding this. I wish people would properly provide space for their hamsters.
I got a large rat cage to start with, waiting for the pet store to put aquariums on sale. Now she's in a 40 gallon breeder, and next year will be upgraded to a minimum 55 gallon, if not larger. I currently live in a small apartment so space is limited, but will be in a house next year where I can give her even more room.
My hamster doesn’t ever use his he literally climbs up the side of his platform/what his water bowl is on instead of taking the bridge 😂so I decided to just take it out of his cage 😂
I love this video! Im a 6'5" 200lb dad that absolutely fell in love with his daughters hamster. We had her for a little over 2 years before she passed. Her passing was a lot harder for me than i thought it was going to be, i felt just as bad as losing a family member, i was absolutely distraught and im still pretty upset. I also had a hard time talking to people about this because i thought people would look at me like i was crazy for loving a hamster that much. My wife and daughter supported me through it and my daughter actually said it was the first time she had seen me cry. I was just beside myself but i quit caring what anyone thinks and I'm getting a picture of her poking out of my pocket right over my heart! I loved her and thats that, she wasnt a normal hamster, she waited on me every night the same time id walk into the room and she would jump on the enclosure wall in anticipation! I really miss that, RIP TOOT!
@@Azyeeeeee people who do not emotionally mature cannot handle a death at all and often do things to harm themselves or maybe others when acting out. I dealt with my grief in a proper manner and am carrying on with my life. If you spend every night of your life for years with someone or something and you do not grow attached to the point you are very upset when they pass, I would say that's forming a different emotional problem or diagnosis should we say?! Sociopathic tendencies should we say?! Lmao, to think how sad of a person you have to be to try to say something negative about my post, I feel sorry for you! Oh no, I guess that's empathy and now I'm feeling things again!! Lmao
I used to use a hamster ball for my hamster coco when we first got him however he banged into a wall and the ball split in half ever since then we have only used the play pen unfortunately he passed away 5 days ago and we miss him so much he was the most sweet hamster Xx Fly high coco you will be truly missed He was so cute didn’t have to tame him he would just cuddle into your hand the day he died he didn’t sleep in his bed instead went behind the ramp at the bottom of the cage and curled into a little bawl I believe it was so he did it so me and my sister didn’t see him he wasn’t in any pain and had a great life nibbling on food 🖤🕊️
When I first went to buy my hamster the shop said that they have to be sold in twos , threes or fours. They had also advised that I got a hamster ball, bendy bridges and they showed me a very small cage then said “this cage would be perfect for your hamster to live in”Thankfully, I had done lots of research before buying my hamster and I didn’t buy those items. I was also just looking for one hamster to prevent fighting so I had to buy him from somewhere else now it’s been a year with my little sunny, healthy friendly and happy.
I gave my hamster a ball, before I had found out that it could potentially injure it. It loved it so much. It would get into it voluntarily, and when it wasn't around it would try to escape and climb onto the shelf which I kept the ball on, and get on top of it. It could have gotten hurt, but it never did. I think the happiness it got from it, overweighed the potential risk. I'm not saying you should give your hamster a ball, but it's not so black and white as yes or no.
My hamster lived for 4 great years and she loved her ball, I limited her of course but thankfully it never harmed her, she would of lived longer had she not got bitten by a punk A** spider 🤦🏽♀️😒🤣
They are forbidden in some countries because of some good reasons! One point is that they are locked in them, they can't go out alone. Some panicked and died!! It's only for the entertainment of people not for hamster! Give them a good running wheel, they are not locked inside and can use it if THEY want!!
I was similarly lucky with two dwarf hamsters and they grew up together in the cage just fine. But then when I put two dwarf hamsters together last year (bought from the same pet shop and tank), it was pretty clear they wouldn't get along. We got another cage the same size as the big one and separated them. They're both much more relaxed, and living stress free lives. One even likes to hang out on a platform and sit with us while we watch TV. He even watches me when I sing. Lesson learned.
@@bozieduble8541 Actually that reminds me, the funniest part of the whole situation was some guy piped up to defend saying something like "Oh yeah we did that once and they tore each other apart" and the mum of the kid who tried to fight me was like "well that's a bit graphic to be saying in front of kids" like mame we wouldn't be having this convo if you would keep your 13yo crotch goblin in check!

I have read that if you adopt two hamsters from the same enclosure, and that those hamsters where together since birth, then they are likely to form a bond and not fight.
@sadmanmostofazawad5573 I've heard from people who tried that that it doesn't work. Specifically, the Odd1sOut and a few other sources from my hamster discord. New enclosures can lead to stress, and that stress could most likely cause something to snap in their brains because they feel unsafe. I wouldn't recommend it
Thank you so much for this!!! My hamster has a bendy bridge and I was unaware that they can be dangerous, I’m thankful that he only uses it to burrow under!
If anyone here thinks that it’s too much work to decorate a cage like that, then don’t get a hamster. They are originally wild animals ( although tamed) that still need a wild environment.
About the bendy bridges: - You can use them as walls inside your cage, in order to create terrain. - The rooms in between can be padded with fiber and moss. We did that with our little one, and it worked really, really well. You can also get yourself some natural glue, that is safe to eat, and glue the moss/fiber down. You can also do that with those wooden ladders and "weave" hemp-mats in between the rungs, so the little ham can easily traverse heights. just keep the height-limit in mind ^^
The key is to imitate their life in the wild. They are social animals and are very active and crafty love to burrow and do splash in water to clean when dirty. Sand is not natural to a hamster dirt yes because they're in meadows and pastures often. But they climb and swing and scavenge and everything like squirrels
No, you're wrong. They don't go into water but use sandbathe for cleaning themselves from parasites. Despite of this they clean themselves with their little hands and mouth, a little bit like cats.
You can fill the bendy bridge gaps with moss tho and that makes them safe so they don’t trap their paws! Or is it now recommended to not use them at all? Just wanting to check so I know whether or not I should take them out of their enclosures when I get home.
I’m pretty sure this only applies to bendy bridges made from natural twigs/ branch segments though. As far as I know, the bendy bridges with perfectly sanded edges and that are made from straight sticks will lay flat against each other and won’t have gaps. In this case (most of the time) you won’t have to fill the gap! ❤
i use bendy bridges to block the bedding from getting out of the glass wall when i open it! and use the bedy bridges to block other paths so the beddings dont mix when they are two different beddings
I have a rabbit and over all the small animals such as hamsters, guinea pigs, chinchillas rats mice and bunnies are taking such bad care of by some people and people need to realize that most of these animals cannot be bathed in the water and need a lot of open room to run and not just a small cage
I hope you have TWO rabbits?? Rabbits shouldn't be alone, also gerbils, mice and guineapigs. And yes, you are right, they need space for running around, not just sitting in a corner.
Nope! Syrian hamsters and most dwarf hamsters are solitary animals and are perfectly happy on their own. There is one type of hammy that can be kept in pairs but I'm not sure the name
Hamsters can actually be kept in the same cage but 1. The cage needs to be pretty big and 2. You need to get the hamsters used to each other by slowly introducing there sent and maybe dividing the cage in half with a glass thing with little holes
Hamster community will hate me My hamster is on a certain shampoo for hamster the vet gave us as she has horrible skin issues. It is helping clear it up only js dab a tiny bit of water then shampoo . THIS IS VET ADVICE AND THE VET GAVE US THE MEDICATION AND HAMSTER SHAMPOO!!

I’m actually planning on getting two hamsters but I really need someone to explain to me properly rather than me watching several different youtubers
That's not true at all! Hamsters know the difference between hands and food. You can give them a little bit of plain, unseasoned chicken occasionally, and it is a good source of protein. 🐹💕
@@calimero600 really!? Omg I’ve only wanted one hamster, but the pet store near me says that hamsters need accompanying😂 I guess I’m being influenced by a lot of fake information, I’m still doing research about buying a hamster and your comment really means a lot, thanks for taking the time to educate me🤍
@@charvi5146 Sometimes the sellers in pet stores really don't know anything, they are just selling. Read a book about hamsters living in nature, this tells you a lot about their needs. It' s an imteresting animal, very sporty, they run a long distance every night, they love climbing. That's why they need a big cage or an old aquarium with enough space in it.
Thanks! I might get a hamster, so if you don't mind, could you share a few more tips with me? I am aware it takes a little while to create a bond with them, and I want to make sure this is the right let for me!~
Good luck with your future hamster! Here is a video that talks about pretty much everything you need to know before getting a hamster: th-cam.com/video/xQtBDdJHMTU/w-d-xo.html I hope this helps! 🐹❤️
My hamster will not eat any meats 😭😭 he barely eats any fruits or veggies. He will eat starches, seeds, and foraging mixes. He's almost 2 and has always been like this, maybe just because he chonky 😂
Explanations:
*Hamster Ball:*
•Their toes can get stuck in the ventilation slits, breaking them.
•They don't have enough ventilation.
•The hamster can't stop the ball, and it can crash into walls, hurting them.
•Hamster balls cause disorientation and stress.
•Most hamster balls are too small.
•Hamster balls can cause infections from urine and faeces build up.
•They trap heat.
There are many other reasons, but these are the main problems!
•The lids can fall off easily, making it easy for them to escape and get lost!
*Please don't bathe your hamster!*
Bathing your hamster in water washes out the natural oils in their coat and can seriously harm them, as they will be extremely stressed during the process. They could also die from hypothermia! Calcium, colour and dust free reptile sand is must better to let them bathe themselves in!
Hamsters much never be kept together, as they are solitary animals! If they are kept together, they could potentially have a lethal fight!
Bendy bridges:
Hamsters can get their feet or toes caught in between the gaps, which can break them. They can be used and are safe, as long as you stuff the gaps with toilet paper, bedding, or moss.
Hello! Is there a certain type of sand we should use? Or does any sand work
Hello! I would recommend using colour and calcium-free reptile sand! 🐹💕
Hiii I stuffed the gaps with Elmer’s glue which made it become a solid surface is that ok?
@@leaving.. Yes! Using elmer's glue to stick moss, toilet paper or bedding in the gaps is a great idea! 🐹💕

Thanks! I might get a hamster, so if you don't mind, could you share a few more tips with me? I am aware it takes a little while to create a bond with them, and I want to make sure this is the right let for me!~
Good luck with your future hamster! Here is a video that talks about pretty much everything you need to know before getting a hamster:

@@pancakespetsThanks so much!~
Trop cute❤❤❤
My hamster will not eat any meats 😭😭 he barely eats any fruits or veggies. He will eat starches, seeds, and foraging mixes. He's almost 2 and has always been like this, maybe just because he chonky 😂
i fucking love you live forever PLEASE.
The sad thing is that i have a small house and we dont have space for a cage of that size and i use one of wires 😭
Rehome the hamster
I gave my Ham's bendy bridge to my roommate's leopard gecko. I just need to get more stuff to load her enclosure with.
